Functional features of the T1 CSU/DSU Card are:
• Single port CSU/DSU for T-1 and Fractional T-1 applications.
• Provides WAN (Wide Area Network) access to LAN internetworking, CAD/CAM, video conferencing,computer and PBX equipment.
• DIP-switch configuration and control.
• RS-530 physical interface applications port. Configured to support V.35 or RS-449.
• Compatible with carrier service offerings and standards-based T-1 equipment.
• On-board switch-selected diagnostics.
• Ability to drive T-1 signals (using shielded twisted-pair cabling) up to 6000 feet (1,829 m).
The T1 CSU/DSU Card can process digital information from a single high-density DB26, software-selectable DCE port supporting V.35 or RS-449 applications at speeds of either n x 56 Kbps (56, 112, 168,224, 336, 448, 672, 1344) or n x 64 Kbps (64, 128, 192, 256, 384, 512, 768, 1536), depending on theformat and density requirements of the application.
The DTE port (Port A) is on a separate I/O interface module, which installs vertically in the rear of theWAN Rack 16 chassis. The I/O interface module is illustrated in Figure 2-2.
NOTEThe second DTE Port (Port B) on the I/O interface module is not supported by the T1CSU/DSU Card and should not be cabled.
The T1 CSU/DSU Card provides framing and density requirements for transmission across predefinednetwork facilities. Timing (clock) may be derived from either the T-1 line (loop-slave), an internalStratum Level IV crystal oscillator (internal-master), or externally from the DTE (external channel).
All application configurations are switch-selected through two 12-switch DIPs (S1 and S3) mounted onthe T1 CSU/DSU Card. See Figure 2-1.
The T1 CSU/DSU Card also provides continuous network and channel (DTE) signal monitoring. Whenthe LED display shows network degradation, you can use a series of loopback tests to troubleshoot theunit and its network quickly and accurately.

2.2 Controls and Indicators2.2.1 NETWORK BANTAM JACKS
The four network Bantam jacks, located on the front of the T1 CSU/DSU Card, provide access to thenetwork aggregate for either monitoring or testing (signal injection) purposes. See Figure 2-1.
• The MON OUT jack passively monitors the aggregate signal, on the T-1 network side, generated byyour unit.
• The TX OUT jack allows you to inject a DS-1 test signal toward the T-1 line.
• The MON IN jack passively monitors the aggregate signal, on the T-1 network side, received from thecarrier.
• The RX IN jack allows you to interrupt the aggregate signal, on the T-1 network side, and replaceyour unit’s network receiver with the test set’s receiver.
To monitor (without interrupting aggregate application data) the T-1 carrier service, connect a T-1 testset between the MON OUT jack and the MON IN jack.
To inject and receive a test signal (application data will be interrupted) across the T-1 network, firstconnect a T-1 test set between the TX OUT jack and the RX IN jack. Then put the T1 CSU/DSU Carddiagnostic CHNL loopback switch in the REMOTE position.
NOTEUsing the TX OUT and RX IN Bantam jacks will disrupt your application data.
2.2.2 DIAGNOSTIC LOOPBACK SWITCHES
The two diagnostic loopback switches, located on the front of the T1 CSU/DSU Card, provide manualcontrol over the execution of four diagnostic loopbacks: Local Aggregate, Remote Aggregate, LocalChannel, and Remote Channel. See Figure 2-1.

4.2 Network TimingThe T1 CSU/DSU Card uses three types (modes) of aggregate timing: Internal (Master) Crystal Timing,Loop (Slave) Timing, and External Channel Timing. Table 4-4 describes the DIP settings that must bemade to support the various network timing modes.
Table 4-4. Setting Network Timing
Network Timing Mode DIP Switch S1-9 Position DIP Switch S1-10 PositionInternal (Master) Crystal On OnLoop (Slave) Off OnExternal Channel On Off
Internal (Master) Crystal Timing—Data is transmitted (clocked) to the network with a signal provided by the crystal in the T1 CSU/DSU Card. Timing for the data transmission from the DTE to the T1CSU/DSU Card is also clocked using this same signal. See Figure 4-2.
Figure 4-2. Internal (Master) Crystal Timing Diagram.
Loop (Slave) Timing—Receive data from the network, when received, is passed through a Phase LockLoop (PLL) circuit. The function of the PLL circuitry is to create a clock based on the line transmissions(marks) that is in phase with the incoming data. This clock is then used for both the receiver and theattached DTE equipment.
The PLL clock signal is also used as a reference for Send Timing (ST) to the DTE and also as the clockfor transmitting data to the network. In this timing scheme, both network and port timing are slaved tothe same clock source. A single clock source ensures synchronization between all data transmissions. SeeFigure 4-3.

External Channel Timing—Data is transmitted (clocked) to the network with a signal provided by theDTE. The DTE passes this clock signal to the T1 CSU/DSU Card via Terminal Timing (TT). Timing forthe data transmission from the DTE to the T1 CSU/DSU Card is also clocked using this same signal.DTE Channel Timing must be configured for Loop 1 if this timing mode is selected. See Figure 4-4.

4.3 DTE Channel TimingThe T1 CSU/DSU Card uses two types (modes) of DTE channel timing: Loop 1 Timing and Loop 2Timing.
Loop 1 Timing—This timing mode is used when Data Terminal Equipment (DTE), attached to Port Aon the I/O interface module (Port B is not used), will return (loop) a Terminal Timing (TT) clocksignal in response to receiving the Send Timing (ST) signal from the T1 CSU/DSU Card. See Figure 4-5.
When using Loop 1 Timing, the T1 CSU/DSU Card uses the TT clock signal to gate the Send Data (SD)Function (DTE data) into the network transmit data buffer. Clock function and data are subject to thesame delays and attenuation inherent in data transmission. Therefore, both the data and the clockingfunction should be in sync. As long as the interface specifications for distance versus speed have beenmet, the sampling of the incoming data should never lead or lag more than a few degrees.
Figure 4-5. Loop 1 Timing Diagram.
Loop 2 Timing—This timing mode is used when the Data Terminal Equipment (DTE), attached to PortA on the I/O interface module (Port B is not used), will not return (loop) a Terminal Timing (TT)clock signal in response to receiving the Send Timing (ST) signal from the T1 CSU/DSU Card. SeeFigure 4-6.
When using Loop 2 Timing, the T1 CSU/DSU Card uses its own Send Timing (ST) clock signal to gatethe Send Data (SD) Function (DTE data) into the network transmit data buffer.
NOTETransmission delays (an out-of-sync condition between the data and timing functions)may result from using this form of port timing. When using the Loop 2 Timing mode,adhere to all interface specifications.

When using this timing mode, 100% throughput cannot always be guaranteed. If problems arise thatseem to be the result of using this timing mode, select DTE Channel Timing Invert (S1-6) whenconfiguring the T1 CSU/DSU Card. This causes the sampling of the Send Data to occur on the oppositeedge of the clock, which should allow for a more acceptable data transfer.

5. TroubleshootingBefore you start any troubleshooting routine, evaluate the problem:
• Check system messages and LEDs. Use all available system messages and LED indicators to helppinpoint where there’s a problem.
• Gather as much information as possible about the problem, such as configuration information andoperator action.
5.1 Power ProblemsThe T1 CSU/DSU Card gets its power entirely from the WAN Rack 16 chassis mid-plane. The loss ofmid-plane power will cause a lack of front-panel LED activity (network and channel port).
If there is more than one communication module in the chassis, see if each module is experiencing thesame symptoms. If so, there’s probably a chassis power loss.
To troubleshoot a power-related problem, refer to the WAN Rack 16 manual.
5.2 Network or Port ProblemsTroubleshooting a network or port interface problem involves collecting information about the problemand performing preliminary corrective actions.
Some of the information you should collect:
• LED conditions that may indicate a problem with the DTE, local T1 CSU/DSU Card, T-1line, or the remote unit. (Refer to Chapter 2 for descriptions of the network and DTEchannel LEDs.)
NOTEThe front-panel NETWORK LED labeled “TEST” (Red) may occasionally be activated asthe result of telco network testing. Contact your carrier if you are not conductingnetwork diagnostics and this LED condition is displayed.
• Alarm conditions associated with any attached DTE equipment.
• Verifying if the problem or condition is unique to the DTE port and its application, or ifother communication modules are affected.
• Determining if the problem or condition is related to a specific time of day or other commonfactors (for example, changes in electrical loads such as the activation of air-conditioningequipment).
Some of the corrective actions you should perform:
T1 CSU/DSU CARD
31
• Using the resident diagnostic loopbacks to isolate data paths associated with the problem.(See Section 5.3.)
• Confirming that the local T1 CSU/DSU Card and the remote unit’s configuration settingsare correct. (See Chapter 4.)
• Verifying equipment cable types and their connections. (Refer to Appendix C.)
5.3 Diagnostic Loopbacks
CAUTIONThe diagnostic loopbacks described in this chapter are all disruptive to normal DTEoperations.
The T1 CSU/DSU Card communication module contains four resident diagnostic loopbacks that arecontrolled from two rocker switches on the front of the module:
Local Aggregate Loopback—Placing the AGGREGATE LOOPBACK switch in the LOCAL positioncauses the local T1 CSU/DSU Card to place a loopback on its aggregate in the direction of the DTEchannel interface. This diagnostic loopback tests the local DTE channel interface and aggregate. Thelocal module’s front-panel NETWORK LED labeled “TEST” will light. Place the switch in the centerposition after diagnostic testing is complete. See Figure 5-1.
Figure 5-1. Local Aggregate Loopback Diagram.
Remote Aggregate Loopback—Placing the AGGREGATE LOOPBACK switch in the REMOTE positioncauses the remote T1 CSU/DSU Card to place a loopback on its aggregate in the direction of thenetwork. This diagnostic loopback tests the local DTE channel interface, aggregate, and T-1 networkpath. The front-panel NETWORK LED labeled “TEST” will light on both the local module and remoteunit. Place the switch in the center position after diagnostic testing is complete. See Figure 5-2.

Appendix C. CablingRead this appendix before cabling the I/O interface module associated with your T1 CSU/DSU Cardcommunication module.
• We recommend using only 100-ohm, 22-AWG individually shielded twisted-pair cables. Thesecables provide protection from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk.
• We recommend using only shielded RJ-48 cables terminated to shielded modular jacks. This willprevent EMI and crosstalk.
• Do not exceed the DTE cabling distances as recommended by the cable’s manufacturer. Doing somay result in signal attenuation.
• Make sure that all cable connectors (plug, screw, or clip) are correctly aligned and installed.Misalignment or improperly installed connectors may result in damage to pins, connectors,cables, or the unit.
• Determine if straight-through or crossover cables are required.
Pinouts for some of the common cables used on the I/O interface module are illustrated in Figure C-1.
